Based on the dialogue with Nisargadatta Maharaj, here are three key points regarding his process of realization:
The Power of Simple Faith: Maharaj describes his realization as "simple and easy," rooted entirely in the unwavering belief in his Guru's statement: "You are the Supreme Reality." His "practice" was not a complex ritual, but simply the refusal to doubt or forget those words.
Integration with Daily Life: Realization did not require Maharaj to abandon his worldly duties. He continued to "ply his trade" and look after his family, using every free moment to remember his Guru’s words. The memory of the truth acted as a constant anchor amidst ordinary life.
Effortless Manifestation: Maharaj emphasizes that he did "nothing deliberately." He views the Guru’s words as self-acting seeds of truth. Once planted, the subsequent internal changes—the desire to let go, to be alone, and to go within—arose spontaneously from within rather than through forced personal effort.
